Big Ed sits down with Aaron Echternkamp, a highly accomplished professional bass angler, tournament champion, and licensed hunting and fishing guide based in Moses Lake, Washington. Known for his experience on the MLF circuit and for organizing premier outdoor adventures across the Pacific Northwest, Aaron brings a strong local and tournament perspective to this episode. Now competing as a BAM Super 60 angler, Aaron discusses the upcoming Pacific Northwest swing that the BAM Trail will kick off at the end of May. The conversation covers how Moses Lake is fishing right now, where the bass are in the spawn cycle, and why the lake gives anglers several ways to fish their strengths. Aaron explains that some fish have already spawned, but another wave of spawners is still coming. With docks, tules, flipping water, finesse opportunities, and shallow cover, Moses Lake is setting up to be a versatile and interesting tournament fishery. Big Ed and Aaron also talk about other Northwest fisheries, including Potholes Reservoir, and look ahead to the BAM Super 60 at Brownlee.
The Bam Trail, which culminates in the Pacific Northwest at the conclusion of this month, presents an opportunity for an interview with Aaron Echternkamp, a highly seasoned angler residing in the region. In this interview, Aaron Echternkamp will provide insights into the lakes and rivers we will be fishing on during our northern excursion. He will share information on the types of baits, specific areas, and the weights he believes are essential for success in these events.
